As we continue our discussion on everything that has happened in the world of AI in the past week, we begin today's episode with what the public is currently saying about ChatGPT-3 and Google's new alternative, Bard. The recent circumvention of ChatGPT's ethics guardrails has sent shockwaves through the industry, and we talk about why academics are worried about AI chatbots as well as other general concerns about the technology. Then, we dive into the "why" of AI, paying particular attention to who decides what we want from AI and whether the current state of AI is valuable to society. The absence of accountability is a major problem in AI governance and we explore the lack of thought in the long-term implications of AI, as well as how the Australian and New Zealand governments compare in their AI protocols. At the end of the day, countries should be working together to provide a universal framework of ethics in AI, but is this possible with so many different cultures to accommodate? To find out the answer, and to gain insight into Kobi's exciting, new collaboration, tune in now!
